Less than 2 weeks for Maryland Tech Tax decision
This news just in from the awesome folks at Fight The Tech Tax blog:
Governor O'Malley met with legislative leaders last night to discuss the potential repeal of the tech tax. No consensus has been reached. There is less than two weeks remaining in the legislative session. It's important that we keep the pressure on. Contact your legislators and encourage your friends and co-workers to do the same. Read more about last night's meeting here.In the meantime here's another video on the impact of the Maryland Tech Tax on businesses of all types and sizes.

$100 million - Apple iPhone SDK and Austin Powers team up to rule the world
Have you heard the new lottery announcement by ridiculously rich Kleiner Perkins. He's the Venture Capital firm behind Google, Amazon and Intuit. Well he's setting aside $100 million in venture capital to invest in companies creating applications and services for Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch. As you may have heard Apple recently announced their SDK (software development kit). This kit will enable other companies to develop programs and software to run on the iPhone and iPod touch devices. While this will certainly garner major attention, who is following up to ensure his 'gold rush' announcement will follow thru all the way to $100,000,000? We will contact them directly and post an audio or video interview once we hear back.
So subscribe to this blog and stay tuned for more details on this.
In the meantime we will try and locate more details and post to this blog so we can make sure you have an equal opportunity to develop applications for the iPhone and not miss out on this opportunity.
Got an idea to take over the world or maybe a simple idea for a biz program or a hip hop application-- think big and think iPhone demographic - now go make it happen and get you share of the loot$.
